nearly perfect

It's only 8 am and I'm sitting on the balcony over looking the sea. I guess I've caught up on my sleep. The only thing missing is a good cup of coffee. So far I've only found awful English instant coffee. I know what your thinking, "how awful!!! Poor girl". Don't worry too much about me, where there is a will there is a way! I will find good coffee...I will, I will!!!
Here are some photos from day 2 in Cyprus. Nicole went to Kyrina with Rick. Jessica still didn't feel good but is getting better. Juergen's big challenge was a Master sudoko. I taught the boy's to play Rummy. Philip, Sarah, and Thomas spent the rest of the day in the pool. I got too much sun but it was lovely! Today I think we will just continue to chill out by the pool. In a day or two Jessica may feel like walking, and then we will do some tours. My big goal is to get Jessica to spend a few hours in the pool. We decided not to scuba dive because the kids need to be stronger swimmers. I bought the things we need to make a lemon pie. I also want to cook some rice and beans

Wow! From the slideshow, it looks like you are having so much fun with Rick. I would love to visit Germany someday. I can't believe it has been so long since we last saw each other. I remember the last time I saw Nicole she was about two feet tall, now I hear she is over 6! Tells you how long it's been. I miss you all and love you very much. -Bridget

Olivia is born

My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!

painting the garage

Rick goes home in the morning. I'm sure he will be happy to see his kids again. 3 weeks is along time to be away. The time has passed so fast. It's been really wonderful! So wonderful!!! We may stay up all night, that way he can sleep well on the flight. Hopefully his jet lag will be less this way! Anyway, here is his painting. It turned out more then good! I really love it...just like I love my brother! We will have to do this again soon!

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
